MrHappyRotter:I went to school for a good number of years and I was never sexually harassed by a male teacher or professor. Makes me wonder what these chicks do to bring this upon themselves. Also makes me jealous and wonder why I'm never so lucky as to catch the eye of a male teacher like this.

If she was "banging someone half her age", would that not imply that she was screwing an 8yr old boy?She is guilty of something, even if it's just being retarded. You can't force a lap dance unless threats are involved.

The teacher is obviously a douchetard who deserves to get his orifices violated, but the story makes no sense. I doubt she was "forced" to do a lap dance, and had alcohol and maryjay smoke forced down her gullet, etc.

Well duh, everyone knows that wimmin folk can't learn complicated technology what with their primitive intellect without capacity to understand alloys and compositions and things with... molecular structures.

Lucidz:Good point m00... Also, in addition the the lap dances, she hopped in the car with him, went back to his place, got blazed up, got drunk and then had consensual sex.

The word assault gets used liberally in situations like these so that no one focuses on the fact that the 16 year old girl was a raging whore bag who's probably been passed around like a joint at a concert.

enderthexenocide:when i hear about things like this, i always wonder exactly how they thought they were going to get away with it. how did this teacher not realize that this was going to ruin his career and probably send him to jail? was he so horny and attracted to that girl that he was blinded to all consequences? "i know, i'll ask this 16-year-old to do lap dances in class, and then i'll take her home during school hours to give her some pot and have sex with her! this is a win-win situation! there is literally no way this can backfire on me!"

Yeah. I can at least understand when they keep it hidden but how in the world would one think one could get away with something so public???

r1niceboy:Hearing similar tales from my wife has led me to always doubt these stories when I see them. Kids these days think they can call foul and get everything sorted. It's quite possible he did abuse her, but equally possible that he gave her a C and she wanted payback.

There were no doubt witnesses to the lap dances.

Maybe. No mention that there was truthful corroboration, but the teacher would have been suspended as soon as the allegation was made and the local paper would have heard the police bringing in a suspect on their scanner. The thing is, we never read about the teachers who return to work after the allegation are found to have been false. Most are.

A New York man was cited for jaywalking yesterday. Dyp Shytte, 28, was observed jaywalking through rush-hour traffic shortly before five p.m. yesterday. Officer Ray Gingfist observed Mr. Shytte pushing a shopping cart full of severed human heads through dense traffic in what Officer Gingfist called, "a patently unsafe manner."

Jaywalking is defined as "the illegal or reckless pedestrian crossing of a roadway" and is a crime because it not only puts the pedestrian at risk, but can ultimately lead to a chain-reaction of unfortunate events such as: buses swerving into crowds of Japanese tourists, bike messengers braking too hard and flying over their handle-bars and flying face first into open manholes, and cab drivers spilling coffee onto their instrument clusters and / or fare meters.

/Shouldn't headlines focus on the most important event out of the entire sequence of events? I think the lap-dancing is secondary to the marijuana and booze filled sextathlon at the guy's house. Maybe?

I was a remedial math kid. He was middle aged, bald and fat. He offered to pass me if I came back during lunch break. I never went back to class. I dropped out because I was afraid of him.

You know, for all those who say, "Well, this never happened when *I* was in school....", yes, it did. You jst weren't paying attention.

The first day of high school, 10th grade, at Sarasota Sr. High School, my study hall proctor put on a nice performance. This was 1964.He was a social studies teacher and the junior varsity football coach. The first day of school, he was stalking up and down the aisles of our study hall, berating every boy in study hall who failed to go out for football."You little pansies would rather sit here and hold hands with your girl friend than be a MAN and go out for the team!"Close to the whole period, he went on like that. Most of us were sitting there wondering, "WTF?"The real sweetness came three weeks later when he suddenly left. As it turned out, he was banging one of the cheerleaders. He was given the choice of resigning with no mention being made of his conduct or being fired.I wish I could remember his name, but I can't. Except for one uncaptioned photo in that year's (1965) yearbook, he is totally missing.

Which more or less has to be the case so long as we don't treat children like real people. It's legal to force minors to physically move wherever you want them, control who they live with, prevent them from working, force them to work, force them to attend school, take away all their money, completely dictate their social interactions and communications, punish them without cause, prevent them from voting, hit them (just use the magic word "discipline"), etc., etc. etc. Children are not on an equal legal or social footing with adults, particularly not parents -- or teachers, who have many of the "rights" that parents do in terms of controlling children -- so we must dutifully investigate all their reports and should error on the side of the child when conclusions are indeterminate.

Alternatively we could give young people the same rights that all other human beings have, and then we could treat their reports with the same level of skepticism and burden of proof we do for other reports. But until and unless that happens it's a moral imperative to compensate for the legal and social disabilities we inflict on children.

The 1500+ children that died last year from maltreatment by their caretakers weren't making false reports to achieve some selfish goal -- they were being oppressed and ignored by society and died because we didn't do enough to protect them. I don't have precise statistics for the number of parents and teachers killed by false reports to CPS, but I'm guessing it's pretty close to 0. Losing your career to a false report is certainly an unjust outcome we should work to avoid, but losing your life because we couldn't be bothered to investigate is clearly worse, and we need to put that balance in-check.

I always think this when I see stories like this. I mean it feels like we have these stories multiple times a week, why do people still think they're going to get away with it?

Also it doesn't matter if the sex was consensual, he's in a position of power so he'll lose his job and can never teach again. Don't like it, don't become a teacher.
